Optimal evaluation of energy yield and driving force in microbial metabolic pathway variants
Fig 4
Detailed bioenergetic breakdown of the via lactate pathway, evaluated at the same parameters as listed in Table 3.
The wide red bars represent proton translocations invested and the bright green bars represent proton translocations recovered. The narrow dark green bars represent SLP. A greyed-out bar indicates a reaction that’s repeated for the sequential listing of species. The species are arranged in the order they react and are produced by the pathway, allowing for visual identification of bottlenecks.
